Unable to programatically update gr.Examples

[Solomin0]

Describe the bug

When setting a gr.Example component as an output gradio will break. Being only able to update this via a text file seems unintended so i am looking for the proper way to do this. It appears that this bug has existed before and cropped back up #5042
my use case is loading saved prompts from a user and populate the example component with them.

Reproduction

import gradio as gr
def update(name):
    new_examples = gr.Examples(["1","2","3"], inputs=[inp],label = "Saved Prompts")
    return f"Welcome to Gradio, {name}!", new_examples

with gr.Blocks() as demo:
    with gr.Row():
        inp = gr.Textbox(placeholder="What is your name?")
        ex = gr.Examples(["a","b"], inputs=[inp],label = "Saved Prompts")
        btn = gr.Button("Run")
    btn.click(fn=update, inputs=inp, outputs=[ex])

demo.launch()
